[PATCH] watchdog: mena21_wdt: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference

From: Johannes Thumshirn
Date: Tue Jun 02 2015 - 06:25:59 EST


In a21_wdt_remove() we do a watchdog_unregister_device() on struct
a21_wdt_drv->wdt but never assign it.

Also move the dev_set_drvdata() call in front of the watchdog_register_device()
call, so it doesn't look like an error.
